Jennifer Aniston, Selena Gomez "Double Date" Story Made Up
Jennifer Aniston and Selena Gomez are NOT planning a double date, despite a report. Gossip Cop can exclusively bust the seemingly fabricated report.
Unsurprisingly, the tale comes from the fabrication factory known as HollywoodLife. "Selena Gomez & The Weeknd's Plans To Double Date With Jennifer Aniston & Justin Theroux," the headline announces. It says in the accompanying story, "Now that Selena Gomez has found love, we can't help but wonder how her good friend Jennifer Aniston feels about her new romance."
Well, it's quite convenient then that the serial fabricators happen to have "all the EXCLUSIVE details on what the actress really thinks about her sizzling relationship with The Weeknd." A so-called "insider" is quoted as telling the site, "Jen couldn't be more excited for Selena. She feels like if anyone deserves to be happy and find true love it's Selena."
"Jen has always considered Selena to be like a little sister and is so grateful to finally see her at such peace with herself and her life. She's super proud of her and how far she's come," continues the supposed source, who goes on to allege, "Jen and Selena have already talked about going on a double date when The Weeknd finishes up his world tour."
This article is a follow-up to one HollywoodLies peddled in January, claiming Aniston was giving Gomez relationship advice. Gossip Cop confirmed at the time the story was manufactured, and now we've learned this new one about a double date is, too. Aniston's rep exclusively tells Gossip Cop the claims are "made up completely." Remember that the next time the webloid publishes another one of its "exclusives."

#investEU: EIB finances Valio's healthier dairy products
The European Investment Bank (EIB) has agreed to lend up to EUR 30m to Valio, the Finnish dairy company, for its research, development and innovation investments related to nutrition, functionality and health impacts of dairy products. Furthermore, these investments aim to ensure better food security through innovative solutions for more efficient food production. This EIB operation is guaranteed under the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI), a key element of the European Commission's Investment Plan for Europe.
Valio's investment programme focuses on research activities in the fields of dairy chemistry and technology, nutritional expertise, product development and consumer preferences. It also includes purchases of piloting equipment for laboratories, systems dedicated to implementing the research and innovation programme as well as technology licensing expenses. The research and development activities will be carried out at Valio's existing facilities in Helsinki.
EIB Vice-President Ambroise Fayolle, whose responsibilities include EFSI and innovation, said: "Supporting research, development and innovation with a substantial health impact is a key priority for the European Investment Bank – also under the Investment Plan for Europe – so we are glad to be supporting Valio's development of high value-added food products. By enhancing Europe's position as a major technology supplier and supporting skilled employment opportunities, this project is strengthening Europe's global competitiveness in an area that makes a real difference in people's daily lives."
Tuomas Salusjärvi, Valio's Executive Vice President in charge of Product Groups and R&D, added: "Valio is researching and developing new ways to produce dairy products that are ever more healthy and delicious. We have developed ValSa® milk salt from the minerals in milk and it can be used to reduce the amount of less healthy normal salt in products. ValSa® has export potential and it can be used also in other than milk products. In our new snack factory that will be completed this year, we will be able to manufacture products with the same good taste and even less sugar than before without the use of sweeteners. Our leading export products are the Valio Gefilus® range, which contains LGG® lactic acid bacteria, the world's most researched probiotic. Valio is a global pioneer in the development of Lactose-free dairy products. The loan granted by the European Investment Bank to Valio for research work is a sign that our product development is valued internationally."
European Commission Vice-President, Jyrki Katainen, responsible for Jobs, Growth, Investment and Competitiveness, said: "Valio, a food industry giant in Finland, is also a global frontrunner in dairy ingredients due to its investments in research and development. Modernising Europe's food industry and agricultural production technologies, supporting the research programmes underpinning that modernisation, as well as bringing innovative agricultural products to the market, requires sustained investment. That is where the Investment Plan for Europe can play an important role. I am delighted that today's EFSI-backed loan agreement will allow Valio to invest in the equipment and research required for its development and innovation programme. This Finnish success story can continue to innovate, expand and create new jobs."
This is the EIB's first loan to Valio and this financing will help to diversify the borrower's funding base and the extension of its maturity profile.

(Note: Strong language in paragraph four)
Reuters) - An Alaska television reporter wrapped up a live segment on medical marijuana with a curse and an "I quit," telling viewers she will work instead to legalize pot in the state.
Charlo Greene revealed she was in fact the owner of the "cannabis club" featured in her story on Anchorage's KTVA 10 p.m. broadcast Sunday.
"I ... will be dedicating all of my energy toward fighting for freedom and fairness, which begins with legalizing marijuana here in Alaska," the reporter said.
"And as for this job, well, not that I have a choice but, fuck it, I quit," she added, before shrugging her shoulders and walking off-camera.
A stunned colleague apologized immediately to viewers. KTVA news director Bert Rudman said in a statement later the station regretted the use of inappropriate language.
"The employee has been terminated," Rudman said on the channel's Facebook page, prompting several readers to note Greene had already quit.
Alaskan voters are due to consider an initiative to legalize marijuana at a ballot in the fall, as are voters in Oregon and the District of Columbia.
Colorado and Washington state voted in 2012 to become the first U.S. states to permit recreational sales of the drug to adults.
Greene said she decided to speak out in such a dramatic fashion to counter called "fear-mongering" by opponents who tried to equate pot regulation with legalizing methamphetamine or crack cocaine.
"If responsible adults should be allowed to choose how they like to drink, why differentiate my toke from your beer?" Greene asked in a separate video statement.

Introduction to Air Quality
7 Best Appliances to Control Air Quality in the Home
In today's times, we almost always concerned about the increasing levels of pollution, especially that in the form of smog, ozone, and even dust particles and the impact these might have on us or our children. While most of us feel secure from the all the pollution on the roads and elsewhere, truth is the air inside our homes and offices isn't as clean and we would like it to be. As a matter of fact, William J. Calhoun of the department of medicine at the University of Texas, once said, "Indoor air quality can be worse than outdoor air quality in almost every case".
While we may not be usually aware of the various pollutants that are found in the air inside homes and offices, it is often loaded with lead, radon, formaldehyde and various chemicals released through fragrances used in cleaners as well as perfumes. While some pollutants are released from within the home, the others find their way through shoes, new mattresses, furniture, wall paint, and even carpet cleaners.
Some of the more aggressive pollutants that might have an immediate impact on the residents include microscopic dust mites, mold and pet dander. The surprising part is, you do not necessarily need a pet to have pet dander in and around your home. Most pet owners carry it on themselves and their clothes and unknowingly shed it wherever they go, thus making the dander a community pollutant.
Indoor irritants and allergens are increasingly causing various health problems, and more so in the recent times for the simple reason that almost all of us spend most of our tome indoor, whether at home or in offices. Deteriorating air quality is fast becoming a major concern for children and old people, especially those with asthma.
While this may seem to be an insurmountable problem, thankfully for us there a few appliances which can help us improve the air quality in the home. Approved and recommended by our group of experts, these appliances will surely bring about a radical change in the air that we breathe in, day in and day out!
Cool Room Humidifier – URPOWER 2nd Version Essential Oil Diffuser
There are some of us who just cannot bear the dry air of the winters. Not only does it make our skin creak, but the constantly running thermostat, as well as the air-tight indoors, often results in an irritable respiratory tract as well. Given that dry air comes in the way of proper draining and functioning of the sinuses, those with sinusitis also face a lot of trouble indoors. Nosebleeds, cold or other nasal allergies are also often related to dryness in the air. It is in such cases that doctors often suggest patients invest in a fine quality cool or warm mist humidifier.
If you're wondering how exactly will getting a cool or warm mist humidifier solve your problems, let us divulge some of the many benefits of the same:
- A humidifier ensures that your throat and nasal passages remain moist, thus lowering your susceptibility to various infections.
- In case you're already under the weather, using a cool or warm mist humidifier will help fasten the healing process.
- The use of a good humidifier during the nights often helps relieve the intensity of snoring.
- Humidifiers have also been proven to improve the health of the skin. Using a humidifier in your bedroom will not only make your facial skin feel fresh and supple but will also aid the healing of chapped lips.
- Most nasal irritations, including nose bleeds, asthma and cold can be efficiently suppressed through the use of a cool or warm mist humidifier.
Now that we know about some of the flattering benefits of a humidifier, let us take a look at the best humidifier as recommended by our team of experts, the URPOWER Ultrasonic Aroma Essential Oil Diffuser. A 2nd generation offering, this appliance has proven to be one of the most efficient and convenient ways to add just the perfect amount of moisture to the air in homes as well as offices.

Room Humidifier – URPOWER Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser
Aromatherapy is essentially a scientific process that depends on the use of fragrant essential oils, as a way to augment our well-being, both psychologically and physically. Typically, these oils emit a special aroma that stimulates the brain activity and consequently results in a gradual healing process. Moreover, some of the aroma oils, when absorbed in the skin, enter directly into the blood stream to kick-start a therapeutic session. It therefore makes complete sense to invest in a product that can offer you a steady stream of aromatherapy effortlessly.
One such product recommended by our expert team is the URPOWER Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser. While essentially an oil diffuser, this product also doubles up as the best ultrasonic humidifier, you can get your hands on.

The vibrations of these plates transform water into a fine mist that is then blown out with a fan.

However, the newer and costlier versions of ultrasonic humidifiers feature advanced technology that eliminates the problem of white dust.

- As a matter of fact, most bacteria thrive at a relative humidity level of 50% or more. This can result in contraction of many diseases by the residents the most common of which is Legionnaires' disease.
- Studies have proven time and again, that an optimal environment helps increase the efficiency while ensuring a relaxed and more optimistic mental state.

The Much airborne flu virus is known to do the rounds of our house, thanks to the intermittent act of coughing and sneezing, more so in cases when we simply ignore the advice of washing our hands right after!

More often than not, these micro-organisms are known to result in short term allergies, and long-term illness, in both young and elder members of the home alike!
In some cases pungent, spicy or simply bad odors can result in irritation of the nasal passage. Given that these smells are often difficult to eliminate and are more that unpleasant, they also cause unwanted nervous tension.

Air Purifier For Large Space – Honeywell 50250-S True HEPA Air Purifier
More often than not, the air in our homes is not as pure as we would like it to be. In fact, almost always it is loaded with various elements that are invisible to the naked eye, such as pollen, dust, mildew and mold amongst many others. It is for this reason, that it is highly recommended by health experts from across the globe to use a suitable air purifier for dust in your homes and offices.
The best air purifier for dust, often work on the principle of drawing the air in the room inside the appliance, then make it pass through the inbuilt purifier in order to remove any pollutants as well as allergens that might be present in the air. The pure air is then put back into the room thus ensuring that all you get is fresh, breathable air.
If your living space or for that matter workplace is larger than average, the while on the lookout for an air purifier for dust, you must ensure to check the exact square footage of the space and match it with the functional capacity of the purifier of your choice.
While in case of small and moderate room sizes, a desktop model or a tower purifier would work with great efficiency, but if the size of the space is larger than 500 square feet, you must opt for an air purifier for dust that is available in a console or tower model, such as the Honeywell 50250-S True HEPA Air Purifier. Moreover, you must ensure that the Clean Air Delivery Rate or CADR of the purifier is upwards of 130. Always remember the higher the CADR, the greater is the volume of clean air delivered by it, thus making sure your large living or workspace is always filled with the best quality of air.
Given that it is rather difficult to purify the air in a larger space, the purifier is designed in a manner that it intakes air from multiple directions. It is thus advisable to place the air purifier for dust in such a manner that it isn't surrounded by any object, wall or furniture, as this may reduce the efficiency of the same. For instance, in a bedroom the purifier can be placed at a distance of around 10 feet from the headboard thus ensuring that it isn't blocked for use, while also making sure that you don't feel any draft.

A while ago I had shared with you information about Dabbleboard, an online whiteboard collaboration platform. Recently, I found out that Dabbleboard is no more! The loss of this simple, easy-to-use platform is sad, as it seemed to be one of the few online collaboration tools that was pain-free and setup-free. On my hunt to find a replacement tool, I came across, Twiddla – which I am happy to say goes leaps and bounds beyond Dabbleboard.
Twiddla is a no-signup required, easy-to-use online meeting platform. Simply create a room, invite users, and begin collaborating! Or, just share the link with friends and even setup a password for privacy.
Within the room itself, you can share websites, graphics or documents. Plus, you can easily bring up a typepad to write collaboratively or a canvas to draw collaboratively. All of this is done simply by maneuvering through this basic toolbar:
There is also a chat feature within each meeting room, which allows users to talk via text or audio while collaborating online. These dialogues can then be printed into PDFs, and the screen annotation can be easily converted to downloadable screenshots.
All in all, Twiddla has a variety of features and options that makes online meetings and collaboration a breeze. No sign-ups, no downloads, and no firewalls – just click and share to begin! This tool is great for all kinds of educational collaboration, such as group projects, after-school tutorials, and professional development sessions.
Happy twiddling all!

Introduction: Glass Tile Pendant - Textured
These colorful and unique pendants were made from altered glass tiles from the home improvement store. The tiles are embellished with a raised and textured grid pattern. The tiles have been painted with acrylic paints. The tile measures 1 7/8 x 1/2 inches. A recycled silver colored metal nut is attached as a bail. I used glossy accents as my glue. First attaching the nut and letting the glue dry overnight. The next day I added more glossy accents around the base of the nut to reinforce the hold.
There are so many ways you could alter one of these tiles. Let your imagination fly free with this project!

The Junkyard - Medieval Forest Anomaly was an Anomaly linking a junkyard in the present day to a forest in Medieval times.
When this Anomaly opened up, a Dracorex fled through from Sir William de Mornay. When the ARC team arrived, they nearly sent the Dracorex back through the Anomaly (incorrectly believing that it linked to the Dracorex's home time period), until de Mornay came through the Anomaly into the present to kill the Dracorex. The ARC subsequently locked the Anomaly.
Sarah Page had the Anomaly temporarily unlocked and travelled through to Medieval times to find out about de Mornay and the Dracorex's presence there, then returned through. After the ARC team talked de Mornay out of killing the Dracorex, he returned through the Anomaly to Medieval times. (Episode 3.7)
- Some fans believe that this Anomaly links the exact same spot in time, as William de Mornay stumbled across a tavern in present day London that also existed near the Medieval side of the Anomaly.

Diwali for Shiva-Shakti
A less known story is told in the Skanda-purana, the story of how Ardha-Narishvara, or the half-Shiva, half-Shakti deity, came to be. To become Shiva's half, the legend tells, Shakti undertook a 21-day austerity called Kedar-vrata, concluding with success and union on the Diwali day. A beautiful ancient temple of Ardha-Narishvara is found at Kedar Ghat in Varanasi, impregnated with some of the most intense energies I have ever experienced in a shrine.

Yeah, I read that in the Wikipedia too. The Wikipedia is the 6th Veda you know.

i would have loved to see Dewari in Benares.
Maybe next year;)
love and sunshine to you.

That case of Made in the USA condoms that you wanted me to send are in the mail. Should be there in about 10 days.
your favorite homey,
Ice Tea

Oh, I forgot to mention that I was able to get the "extra-small" condoms that you wanted me to send from the USA. So, have fun.

Hey Ice, old homoey pathic!
How many times do I need to explain that I have neither asked for those condoms, nor am I interested in fiddling with your second-hand extra-small condoms. In fact, I wouldn't touch them with a ten foot pole, okay? Ick!
How many times need I tell you I have a black belt in Kaupina, and consequently have little need to start burning rubber. And should a pussy bug ever try grabbing a bite off the old man, da viryas magnissimo strikes back with vengeance.
So please keep your old rubbers, Ice mistah, and stop being mojo-envious already! Maybe try one of those TV-shop gadgets to get your gear up to snuff again?

Does that mean you aren't sending me the Opium you promised?

My China man was busted last month. Care for some good ketamine? Would get your mojo moving, too.
- November 1, 2008 at 4:28 PM
My mojo is already way above normal. I have to ice my nads down twice a day to keep balls from exploding. I have enough mojo for the both of us. Maybe it is all those expensive herbal extracts I have been taking for years. Mojo? Man I have got enough for both of us. Better check your testosterone levels and make sure your nads are doing their job.

What do you think about Patanjali's works? How about his Mahabhasya commentary on Panini's Ashtadhyayi. Second to Krishna-bhakti, I think it is the best yoga system. Om Namo Shivaya.
- November 1, 2008 at 11:23 PM
- Ananda said...
Love the Yoga-sutras. I've read some contemporary commentaries, and recently acquired from Varanasi a copy including Vyasa's and Shankara's commentaries. The latter is a new discovery, but appears to be an authentic work.
Panini is a bit out of my league, I've never been much into the nitty-gritty of Sanskrit even if I appreciate the obsession some of these grammarians had. I wonder whether the author of Mahabhashya is the same Patanjali to begin with.

My kinda Panini, more like it. Grabbed one at the Delhi airport the other day.

What is your favorite meat? Do your prefer Salami or ham?
- November 2, 2008 at 9:59 AM
hey big mouth ice tea
this was a nice article and some people expect some relative comments. go start your own blog!! sala would give you one slap for making these comments under this article
- November 3, 2008 at 7:09 AM
Nice article. It came straight from the Wikipedia. You don't have to know anything except copy and paste to write articles like this one. I just want to know what kind of meat Ananda likes on his Panini.

Would reading Encyclopaedia Britannica and writing a summary article be as despicable as reading Wikipedia?
Yeah, anyone with half a brain could summarize encyclopedia text. There are of course also many other sources from where one could collect such information.
The content of the blog entry itself seem just fine to me. I don't quite see what the problem is — should I have credited Wikipedia? Or in case of summarizing from other sources, should I have credited all those? Even if the same information is commonly available from multiple sources, and where you couldn't really even tell which one of them it's from? And for a quick two-para blog write-up?
I think it's just about whining. People just like to try to find something to complain about. I think it's an Internet disease of sorts, somesuch.
- November 3, 2008 at 4:35 PM
- Ananda said...
A quick look at the plurality of sources out there actually shows that the Wikipedia bit is most likely an uncredited piece of copy-paste... And I should be advertising this?
- November 3, 2008 at 4:41 PM
I think Ananda is setting himself for a return to ISKCON as a guru. Perhaps he wants to replace the ailing guru of ISKCON Mayapur? Yeah, I got Ananda pegged. He has designs on ISKCON and is brainstorming a takeover as the "self-effulgent" acharya come to save ISKCON from itself. I am behind you 100% Ananda.
- November 4, 2008 at 2:30 AM
Ananda, what do you think about the Chupacabras. This creature is real scary. What planet do you think he is from. You can see some video on YOUTUBE.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JN5YPsEelE
man, this Chupacabra is real scary.
- November 5, 2008 at 12:08 AM
- Ananda said...
I don't know, but the Chupacabra sorta reminds me of some of the people commenting on this blog, in some curious manner.
- November 10, 2008 at 12:14 AM
We need poetry !
- November 15, 2008 at 1:39 PM
Yes!! A poem about the Chupacrabra would be much appreciated.

At this point I felt like turning to support so the krielstone bearer was a no brainer. These guys make a fair amount of my lists (but certainly not all).
Was able to get in a few Gnarl league games over the past week or so and just haven't had time to update this – all games were scenario and SR2012 are marked as such. SR2012 are done with appropriate time restrictions though we tend to be a bit more relaxed about extensions.
I read someone else on one of the posts was talking about a quick journal of their games – I am going to try that rather than the lengthy batreps I typically do, just since my time is so limited. I am only going back a week or so because any more than that gets a bit foggy for me.
I have been sticking with the same list for a while just to kind of stabilize the focus and experience I get from playing them. The 35 point list for all games was:
Grissel Bloodsong, Marshal of the Kriels +6 points
* Earthborn Dire Troll 10 points
* Swamp Troll 4 points
* Troll Axer 6 points
Fell Caller Hero 3 points
Janissa Stonetide 3 points
10 Pyg Burrowers 6 points
Stone Scribe Chronicler 2 points
6 Trollkin Scattergunners 5 points
* Scattergunner Officer & Standard 2 points
For 25 points I just basically used what was on the table with a few cuts and adding an impaler. This list is FAR from finished and far from good, really, but it was against a new player on league night so I didn't really care too much about making a super competitive list.
Grissel Bloodsong, Marshal of the Kriels +6 points
* Earthborn Dire Troll 10 points
* Troll Axer 6 points
* Troll Impaler 5 points
Janissa Stonetide 3 points
6 Trollkin Scattergunners 5 points
* Scattergunner Officer & Standard 2 points
SR2012 35 point eGrissel vs. eStryker – Win by assassination. eStryker was forced to try an an assassination run since I was up on scenario points. He beat the snot out of eGrissel, but she had 3 fury and an undamaged Swamp Troll. At the end of the run, Swampy was dead and she had taken 6 points of splash damage. She was then able to put Stryker down. Big lesson learned this time is that even when you think Stryker has a long attack range, you are probably underestimating it.
SR2012 35 point eGrissel vs. eStryker – Win by assassination. eStryker was playing a bit more cagey this game. I had an EBDT charge an arcane shielded Stormclad but didn't really do much. A force to stand burned a fury and I think that was the big deal. I should probably have waited a trn. I put good money after bad and charged in with the axer who did nothing. Grissel popped feat eStryker was feeling plucky so did just 1d6 overboost and took 3 for only 2 strength which my feat had basically negated. Stryker was unable to finish the deal so the Stormclad returned the earthborne to the dirt from whence he came and turned on the axer, knocking out his spirit. Fell caller hit Grissel with warcry. Janissa advanced and slid the Stormclad out of the way, Grissel healed the axer's spirit just in case before charging. She got Stryker down to 1 or 2 and the axer had to finish up for her (which he did). The big learning point here was that Stryker should go big or go home when overboosting.
SR2012 35 point eGrissel vs. Rahn – Win by assassination. Janissa's wall was instrumental in thwarting push/pull shenanigans. Rahn was very hurt by turn 2 dash burrowers ignoring free strikes but not killed. Inhositable Ground is very good against Ret. This forced Shawn to play prett defensively with him and I was able to clear out the sentinels. EBDT jammed on a bunch of sentinels and the combination of Grissel's feat and a nearby wall let him survive the non-charge retaliation. In the end it was dashed, buffed dygmies that gave Rahn something else to brood about. This was Shawn's first time seeing the dygmies and I don't expect them to be so effective next time around with him.
35 point eGrissel vs. eButcher tier – Loss on scenario. So many doomreavers… I had a couple of hot run on tough rolls and inhospitable ground really earned its keep – the crescendo template was also really good. The dygmies went for a turn 2 assassination run on eButcher but had crap rolls with the guns and couldn't hit or get through armor. The scenario we were playing had the reinforcements artifice which we chose not to use but I could really have used something coming in from the side to contest a zone. As it was, going first still didn't get me up close enough and then with all those AD doomreavers running into it pretty much sealed the deal. This game has me looking back at the krielstone instead of swampy – on feat turn my axer might have weathered the doom reavers he was engaged with and contesting the zone and the same with the EBDT.
25 point eGrissel vs. pDenny – Win on assassination. This was an interesting one because I have neither played nor written up any 25 point lists before. I decided to mostly just shuffle points down out of my usual 35 point list and that didn't go well. I basically ended up running my scattergunners like kriel warriors. I ended up winning after the axer frenzied which killed the arc nodel tying up both him and the EBDT. The impaler put his animus on himself and advanced and crit slammed a model through denny which knocked her down and the EBDT was rushed by Grissel and went over and finished the job thanks to an unexpected 4 extra inches of movement. It was my first time facing Darraghe Wrathe and his light cav so it was fun.
I also had to get in two team games for the league in order to get the patch. Since I am the only Minions player I went ahead and did that for the official team up with Shawn's Retribution of Scyrah which technically violates the year of the Trollblood but I am okay with it since it was 2 one off games for the league. The list I took for both games was:
Sturm and Drang
2x War Hogs
4 Bone Grinders
Shawn brought a Rahn list and we faced off against pGaspy and Kara Sloan. Rahn did what Rahn does and pulled Kara's light jack across the table on turn 1 and then smashed it with the Phoenix, the Cygnar player ended up mostly sparring with Shawn until the last turn of the game when Kara popped feat and should have blown Sturm and Drang off the table save for a couple of horrible rolls. Gaspy swarmed the center of the table with infantry. Drang then goaded the two warhogs in an impressive display of goading violence killed the necrotech, most of the mech thralls and even a couple of Satyxis Raiders. I lost one of the warhogs but the other was able to clear the middle of the table on one side as the Phoenix cleared Kara's infantry leaving us in control of the center of the table and the win. We did rush the end a bit so we could get in the second league game.
For this game I found myself teamed up with the Gaspy player (the limited factions in our league allow a few leniancies on pairing) again Ryan's pStyker list with a battle engine and the Denny player from before with basically the same list just pared down to fit in. This game was very rushed, but the combo of Denny's feat and the Cygnar shooting killed one war hog and basically neutralyzed the other. We ran out of time because the game store was closing and it ended in a draw. While it wasn't hopeless the other side definitely had the advantage.
The slow grow league at Aero Hobbies in Santa Monica has begun. It is a super slow-mo-grow league which is basically following the Journeyman format except rather than over 6 weeks it is over 6 months. Also, custom battleboxes are allowed since a pretty heavy majority of the players are "vets". The choice of battlebox is important because you must use those models in the following months kind of as the core of your force.
I decided to go with Jarl because I like the image of a trollkin highwayman. I can't help but think of Rob Roy and thus my Jarl speaks like Liam Neeson in my head. Also, in a game of inches movement shenanigans are gold and 3 of his 4 spells are movement buffs. I'm going to be writing more on him soon but suffice it to say that I like him.
Since Jarl's main weapons are ranged attacks it only makes sense to bring along everyone's favorite animus, er, light warbeast the Impaler. His snipe buff is huge with withe 12″ range on Jarl's guns. It allows him to aim at targets up to 16″ away for a couple of boostable pow 12s. The Impaler himself isn't too shabby in the support role – he can take a punch for the team when the enemy gets close enough that the animus isn't as important and his short ranged throwing attack has crit knockdown and while you can't count on it, it is a pleasant surprise when it happens.
Rounding out the force I wanted a beatstick that would work well with Jarl's hit and run play style. The eathborn dire troll fits the bill nicely. He has a decent speed buff of his own which combined with some of Jarl's spells can give a truly frightening threat range. His adaptation ability combined with a ridiculous 5 fury enable him to hold his own in these battlebox games as most of the other warjacks and beasts people take have pretty solid POW on their weapons.
So basically the theory behind the list is to take little bites out of the enemy with Jarl at range while keeping back out of range and then when the enemy gets too close to go full monkey on them.
So, as the Emerald Knights Comics journeyman league winds down the Aero Hobbies slow grow league starts up. Unfortunately since November is also nanowrimo I am not going to do much gaming this month as I furious write. Also, one of my little ones has a double ear infection and the other is trying to catch up with one of her own. So that means I will be lucky to get in any more games at EK. It was a good league, and a whole lot of fun. I am looking forward to playing at tourneys and campaigns there more in the future as PG Dave sets them up.
Anyway, the point of this post is not what has passed, but what is coming up. I had planned on doing Khador for the Aero campaign (I have a ton of it sitting in my closet) but a conversation with Ryan changed all that. He mentioned wanting to dump his trolls and go in with Everblight. I have some Everblight sitting around and have been interested in trolls since the game came out, but Ryan "claimed" them. In my immediate gaming group we have an unspoken rule that if someone has an army, it is theirs and nobody else can move in on it. So I have bided my time seriously since the release of the original Hordes game. I read their initial fluff and just fell in love the background. I have a soft spot in my heart for the downtrodden but noble warriors. Throw in a bit of Celtic and Native American influence (both of which are in my family line) and you have something that would really appeal to me. Add in the ability to take a solid punch and get back up for more, and, well it is like they were custom made for me. Then I had to stop because, well, I would have gotten a bit covetous. Sad to say, but that is just my way.
Now, after many long years, I saw my opportunity and took it with both hands! So after the above rambling it should be no surprise that I am now going to be doing Trolls for Aero and this blog will follow up me painting/playing games with them.
Not only that, but I am taking a cue from Shawn and am declaring this the year of the Troll. I am going to try and overcome my debilitating Faction ADHD and stick to just Trolls for this year. There will still be some other topicss posted in this blog, for instance, I am going to finish my "Thoughts On…" series on the Thornfall Alliance before moving on to Trolls and the weekly fiction callouts will continue to just be on whatever I want.

Credit card crackdown: 5m card holders to receive texts when deals end - and 'rip-off' fees kick in
Nearly 5 million credit card holders will receive texts and emails to tell them when deals are coming to end under a new crackdown on lending rip-offs by City watchdogs.
New rules being finalised by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) will force credit card providers to notify customers two to three weeks before introductory offers are due to stop - and higher interest rates are applied to their credit balance.
The new system is being designed to give borrowers enough time to search for a better deal elsewhere without being hit with high charges. At present many customers receive no warning when deals end, with around half failing to clear their balance before the charges kicks in, according to price comparison site uSwitch.
This means holders of 2.4 million of the 4.8 million cards in circulation offering 0 per cent interest on balance transfers are likely to face high fees and interest.
For example, Virgin's 41 Month Balance Transfer Credit Card offers 41 months at 0 per cent but then starts charging 20.9 per cent a year thereafter, plus an extra 4 per cent to transfer the balance to another provider.
The average UK credit card debt is £1,100 meaning even it can take months or even years to clear debts - especially when high interest rates and fees are added.
Richard Koch, head of policy at the UK Cards Association, which represents card providers, said: "It is positive that the FCA has reiterated its finding that credit cards work well for most customers. That said, the industry remains committed to helping the minority of cardholders who do not use a credit card in a way which is in their best interest. To this end, the industry has developed a comprehensive package of voluntary solutions which the FCA agrees will deliver positive outcomes and can be introduced into the market quickly."
Hannah Maundrell, a money expert at money.co.uk, said: "I hope this is the beginning of the end of people falling for the temptation of a 0 per cent deal only to roll onto sky high interest rates, but I'm sceptical. If it does have the intended effect, the worry is credit card companies will stop offering such competitive deals as they're not making as much money at the tail end."
Christopher Woolard, director of strategy and competition at the FCA, said: "We remain concerned about persistent and potentially problematic credit card debt. We will continue to work closely with consumer groups and industry and to deliver changes to help consumers gain more control over their finances."
The FCA will publish further information on the proposed rules and voluntary remedies later in the year.
